An Ex-Judwe Abot.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. April 26.-Ex-Su-
preme Judge John w. Henry and State
Auditor Walker had an alteration on the
street between and 10 o'clock this morn
ing, in which Judge Henry was shot once
in the right arm and again in the breast
and Walker was severely cut in the head
by blow from Judge Henry's cane. Both
men are now in charge of physicians. The
origin of the trouble is not given.
The affair grew out of the late investiga-
ton of Auditor Walker by legislative
commission. Walker accused Judge Henry
OF talking about him with view to iniure
him. and took strong exceptions to the
judges testimony before the committee.
Judge Henry replied that he had told moth
ing but the truth. whereupon Walker i'm
very profane and emphatic language called
him liar. Judge Henry then struck
Walker over the head with his cane. and
Walker at once whipped out pistol and
fired at him. The ball entered the palm of
the judges left hand, passed up the arm
just under the skin to near the elbow,
where it came out, crossed his breast and
lodged in the breast bone. The wound is
severe and may be dangerous one. Walker
got heavy blow on the left temple, cut
ting long cash. and he is now suffering
from nervous prostratiOn, palpitation of the
heart and numbness of his left side, but the
doctors say he will be all right in few days.
Both are old men, and Judge Henry quite

Maggie McCarthy,s Funeral.

CLEVELAND, O., April 26.-Maggie Nc
Carthy, the pretty young servant in the
household of Rev. W. NJ. Smith, assistant
pastor of the First Presbyterian church,
who died defending her honor was buried
to-day. Rev. Father Thorpe. OF st. JOS
eph's cathedral, delivered the sermon.
Among other things he said:
This murder belongs to class that females
would be justified in arming themselves
against. They would be justified in striking
down the man that insulted them L know of
no crime that cries to heaven as that OF this
wretch who still lives, but who will be judged
by God. Oh, friends, is it not consolation
that we have found women in our land who
will lay down life sooner than honor. Such
chastity and virtueis a consolation TO mourn
ing friends. She died for honor, she died for
purity, she died martyrs death, and may
God have mercy on her soul. That spirit that
no base hand can lay touch upon has gone to
God, and may God receive it.
While the clergyman was speaking
audible sObs were heard from all parts of
the church, and at the conclusion the vast
asSemblage was in tears. The casket was
borne to the yestibule of the cathedral
where the remains were viewed as the peo-
pie passed out. The cortege then took its
way to st. Johns cemetery, OH Woodland
avenue, where poor murdered Maggie Nc
Carthy was laid at rest.
A baker was arrested here to-day. charged
with killing Maggie Mccarthy. His face
is scratched, and it is thought he is impli-
Gated in the affair. The police refuse to
give his name, and he cannot explain his
whereabouts Tor two hours on the night of
the murder.

DEs MONIES, Ia, April 26.-The grand
jury made formal report this morning and
among Others returned an Indictment
charging j. Reed Hurlbut, of Hurlbut,
Hess & Co.. and Joseph Row with murder
in the first degree in the Staying of Con-
stable S. c. Logana at Hurlbut, Hess &
Co.'s store ON March z. A warrant was
Immediately issued for Hurlbut's arrest
Over fifty-tWO witnesses were examined
and it is believed by the authorities that the
evidence is strong enough to convict. The
code of Iowa recognises no accessory be-
fore or after the fact, but considers every
one connected with the crime a principal.
Under the assumption and upon the testi-
mony of witnesses that Mr.. Hurlbut had
abetted Row. he was indicted jointly with.
him. Mr.. Hurlbut is a son OF the we'll
known manager of tine Chicago Times. the
administrator of Wilbur F. Storey's estate
He is socially very popular and was year
ago married to the youngest daughter of
Judge c. Cole of this city. At 2:15 Mr..
Hurlbut was arrested by Sheriff Painter
and Deputy Sam Compton. When the
officers entered the store he appeared EN-
barrassed and when apprised of the object
of their visit said he was prepared for it
and had heard of the indictment and charge
this morning. His attorney Immediately
went before Judge Given who fixed the
bail of both, $4,000 for Row, and $40, 600
for Hurlbut. After fling proper bonds
both prisoners were released.

PIERRE. OAK. April ga detachment
of soldiers from the Wnnebago reservation
passed through the city this morning on
their way to Fort Sully to get supply of
rations. The troops are still at Big Bend
and will remain on the reservation for a
month to watch the settlers and see that
none. OF them get back to their claims.
They have had no serious trouble with the
settlers so far. They are given three days
notice to move and at the end of that
time if still on the ground the soldiers take
possession and move their effects off. One
old lady, Mrs. Catharine Ryan, having no
way Of moving, was hustled into wagon
with her household goods and taken to
Rousseau and left there this morning. The
officer in command of the detachment was
not prepared to say whether all the settlers
would have to go or not. but was under the
impression that they would. as the govern
ment was making an example of them.
The eviction OF these settlers will cause
them untold hardship, as very few of them
have money and were depending entirely
Oh their crops.

DESTROYED a Reservoir.

COLUMBUS. O., April 26.-The governor
this morning ordered the Toledo company
of the National guard to the scene of the
riot at the Paulding county reservoir. The
information, in brief, as outlined to the
governor, is that 300 masked men over
powered the guards at the reservoir last
night and blew up the banks, saturated the
locks and timber with oil and burned
them. The guards were on duty
at the instance of the governor
The building occupied blythe gate keeper was
also burned. The band worked all night
cutting the dikes with pick and spade.
The volume of water Is thus largely re-
duced, though the reservoir is not entirely
drained. The amount of damage is esti-
mated at 100000. The people of that
county are substantially unit in desiring
the destruction Of the reservoir, because it
covers vast area of fine farming land and
renders the entire region sickly.

Appropriate ceremonies.

Appropriate Ceremonies.
CHARLESTON. S. c., April 26.-The celebra-
ton of the unveiling of the statue to John G..
Calhoun in this city to-day was an event to
which the people of the state have looked
forward for many years, and large numbers
came therefore from every part of the state
to take port In or to witness the proceedings.
The entire populace of the city also turned
out en- masse, the result being a parade and
an assemblage of sight-seers such as is rarely
witnessed in the South. The number of men
in the ranks in the various military and civic
organizations was 5000. The line of
march extended from the battery up
Needing street to Marion square,
the site Of the statue. The number of spec
tators along the line was not less than 20, ,OOO
ana the crowd that gathered around the
statue was but little less. There was lib
eral display of bunting, the United States
flag occupying conspicuous place in the
column, on the houses, and i'll the speakers
stand. The statue was draped by both the
state and national coors, which were drawn
away by little children, while thirty-tve
young misses stood as sponsors. Most of
them are relatives Of MIR. Calhoun. Six
babies pulled the ropes under the supervision
of the attending throng of ladies. The
babies were Julia Calhoun, granddaughter
of the statesman; William L. Calhoun,
his great-grandson; Putnam Calhoun,
Jr., great-grandson and great-grand-

Fargo Board of Trade.


FARGO, Dak., April 26.-At meeting
of the board of trade to-day it was pro-
posed to subscribe $4,000 to the stock of
the company boring for natural gas, and a
committee was appointed to arrange terms
for cooperation and prosecution of the
work. Letters were also read from promi-
nent Chicago parties in regard to the new
tariffs under the interstate commerce bill,
all agreeing that the long and short haul
clause should be maintained. c. M.
Wicker, commissioner of the freight
bureau, gave tables showing that the rates
direct from Chicago to Fargo via the Mil
waukee railroad were from 25 to 40 per
cent. less than the sum of the locals to ST.
Paul, and from St. Paul to Fargo. He
said:
With commercial railway situation as above
there seems to be no good reason why Chicago
should not be able TO compete with ST. Paul
and Minneapolis, even in what they choose
to call their own territory, and we fail to see
why Chicago should not recover her former
hold upon this territory, controlling almost
the entire trade of large portion of Mime.

and ivy interspersed with white, pink and
red azelias. The coffin lay in state on the
steps of the chancel, facing towards the
east. At the head stood a floral cross and
crown and on the coffin large cross of
callas. extending the whole length. Be-
hind the coffin III the chancel sat the guard

of the ST. Paul road. The face of the de-
ceased wore a peaceful expression and was
looked upon by hundreds of people up to
noon when the coffin was closed. After
the services in which Dr. Keene officiated,
the procession started for Forest Home,
taking westward route up Grand avenue
and through the Soldiers home grounds.
Brief services were held at the grave. The
procession, which was a long one. was en-
tirely civic in its nature.
